 * I am trying to order a filter with multiple fields.
 * WPQuery supports it.
    [https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/wp_query/#order-orderby-parameters](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/wp_query/#order-orderby-parameters)
 * I have tried `orderby='author title'`
    `orderby='author,title'`
 * Neither works.
 * orderby=author and orderby=title both work on their own.
 * My overall shortcode is
 *     ```
       [mdf_results_by_ajax shortcode="mdf_products per_page=60 columns=3 pagination=tb meta_data_filter_cat=-1 orderby='title'" animate=1 animate_target=body]
       ```
   
 * Any thoughts?

 * Hello
 * this should work with this option –`orderby='author title'`
 * In file – plugins\meta-data-filter\classes\shortcodes.php – You can see that 
   this value is passed to the request attributes – [https://c2n.me/45QQkhW.png](https://c2n.me/45QQkhW.png)
 * Try in file \plugins\meta-data-filter-free\core.php – add your orderby- [https://c2n.me/45QQCpj.png](https://c2n.me/45QQCpj.png)
